While I understand age gets used as a rule of thumb for all of those, why not look directly at a person's circumstances?
    You're right, and make very valid points. Age here is meant to be a biological outline, it isn't my intention to suggest precisely any age anyone should be, but to simply ask about a consensus. However you are right, it is ageist. I apologize that wasn't my intention.

    My personal answer is more of a personal reflection for myself. and my opinion

    @Doctor Amadeus No problem. No offense taken and none intended, there just aren't a lot of guys my age and older on the forums so I wanted to throw out another view.
    With COVID-19 making its impact on our lives, I have decided that I shall hang in there for my remaining days, skip some meals, try to get children to experiment with making henna patterns on their skin, and plant some trees. You know -- live, fast, dye young, and leave a pretty copse. I feel like I may not have that quite right.

    Thank you, and I appreciate you saying something, I sure didn't want to open the door to that kind of bigotry. I do not support that kind of ignorance or stupidity. It for sure is circumstances not age that should determine when it's healthy and perfectly capable for human beings have kids.
